3. QSFP+ port LEDs are in between the ports on each slot. The up arrows refer to the port above and the
down arrows refer to the port below.
4. Four QSFP+ ports: two in Slot 1 and two in Slot 2.
5. USB port
6. Console port (10101)
7. Management port — The LEDs are on the bottom of the port.
8. LEDs for system power (PWR), switch status (Status), redundant power supply (RPS), and fan
modules(Fan).
The following figure illustrates the front view of the VSP 8400 switch.
Figure 9: VSP 8404 front view
Looking at the front of the switch, slot numbering begins at the top row and increases from left to
right. Slot 1 is the top-left slot; slot 2 is the top-right slot. Slot 3 is the bottom-left slot; slot 4 is the
bottom-right slot.
Port numbering depends on the type of Ethernet Switch Module (ESM) installed in the slot. For more
information about ESMs, see Installing the Avaya Virtual Services Platform 8000 Series,
NN47227-300.
1. Displays the four slots to install ESMs.
The following ESMs can be installed on these slots:
• 1/10G SFP+
• 100M/1G/10G RJ45
• 40G QSFP+
• 1/10G SFP+ and 40G QSFP+ combination
2. LEDs for system power (PWR), switch status (Status), redundant power supply (RPS), and
fan modules (Fan).
